Swamp Rat Blues Lyrics - Singles - Jeff Wyatt

In this misty bayou 

In a broken down shack by the way 

Im smokin my last cigarette 

Ive been sittin on the porch all day 

My baby drove up country 

Took the Areostream and my truck 

Im here to tell you 

Im feelin pretty down on my luck 

CHORUS 

Swamp Rat Blues, Swamp Rat Blues 

Thats just what Im feeling 

Swamp Rat Blues 

Ive got mud on my fingers 

Ive got sludge in my heart 

Ive got goop on my guitar 

My hands cant get the chords to start 

Yes Ive been tryin 

To get all my ducks in a row 

But one things for certain 

My lifes never been so low 

CHORUS 

Swamp Rat Blues, Swamp Rat Blues 

Thats just what Im feeling 

Swamp Rat Blues 

MIDDLE 8 

I wanna go back to Cabo 

And spill tequila on my shoes 

I wanna slip in the bottle 

And wash away these swamp rat blues 

How could she leave me here 

To face this world all alone 

I hopin and prayin 

Shell turn around and come back home 

Troubles finds me 

They stick to me like these old tattoos 

From morning till night time 

Im fighting with these swamp rat blues 

CHORUS 

Swamp Rat Blues, Swamp Rat Blues 

Thats just what Im feeling 

Swamp Rat Blues 

Move over rats 

Theres a new rat droppin in 

Is there room, on that mud floor 

For just one more? 

I thought so 

Got anything to eat down here?
